Sewage stench in ports of call

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Carnival Paradise

This cruise had excellent food and entertainment. We purchased a balcony suite and enjoyed it very much while at sea. Unfortunately we experienced an unbearable sewage stench in all ports of call...so much so that we could not enjoy our balcony while in port. We paid $1,000 extra, so we were quite disappointed. We reported this to customer service, but there was no real help offered. The ...

After reading all the reviews I was VERY worried about going on this cruise. Let's be honest - they don't sound so great. Here's my take: Nothing is perfect - It's all about what you make of it. This was our second cruise. Our first was on the Carnival Breeze in January of this year as a family of 3. We did Carnival Paradise in November for just my husband and I as a celebration for my 40th ...

Just a really enjoyable cruise and at a great price. The food was much better than expected; the entertainment was great; one of the comedians was excellent (the other wasn't - but at least there were 10 or so comedy shows on board); every single member of staff was friendly and amazing how many knew our names; MDR breakfast far better than on NCL, Guy's Burgers hit the spot as does the Mexican ...

I traveled with my husband on this cruise to celebrate a birthday. We had a porthole cabin which accommodated two, at the most. Upgrades to the Paradise with the 2018 refurbishing now includes an in-drawer hairdryer with an approximate 2' cord, so if you are tall, you might want to consider bringing your own. Also, they have in room "coolers" that don't get cold enough to be called ...

This was my first cruise on Carinival Paradise. The cruise director Adam was unbelievable , was perfect. He did a great job making sure everyone was entertained. I loved that they had so many activities for all ages. The mr. ARTEM from Casino was so professional ,helpful, friendly and polite, we didn't know how to get winning money and he solved this problem. Food and drinks were great. Service ...

We chose this cruise because it went to two of our favorite ports: Grand Cayman and Cozumel. This was our third cruise, second time on Carnival. The first Carnival cruise was 5 1/2 years ago, to the Southern Caribbean, out of San Juan (on the Valor), and we really enjoyed it. This cruise on the Paradise was disappointing in comparison. Embarkation was extremely quick and painless. Our ...

Stay out of the Elation Dinning Room for Brunch, Crazy slow service, Rude waiters, There was a prob. with a 5.00 drink, we called for the Maitre d, ....he could have cared less. He has no idea what customer service is. I spent over 14,000.00 to take our whole family on this trip and could not get an issue with a 5.00 drink corrected.....really ! We are both Platinum, but this is our ...

This was our 3rd cruise aboard the Paradise and I have to say, the updates they made were awesome. However, every night at dinner, our group had something go wrong. From slow service to the wrong food delivered, you name it, it happened. At one point I had to yell at the waiter for bringing me drinks I did not want. He kept bring me a rum drink he wanted me to try, well after the second night and ...
